<p>Based on author Aravind Adiga’s 2008 novel of the same name, the movie, also featuring Rajkummar Rao and Adarsh Gourav, released on the streamer in January. The English-language drama is directed by Ramin Bahrani, of Fahrenheit 451 and 99 Homes fame.</p>

<p>Guillermo del Toro, known for acclaimed titles like the 2017 romantic-fantasy-drama The Shape of Water and 2004’s Hellboy, said <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/the-white-tiger-review-adarsh-gourav-shines-in-priyanka-chopra-rajkummar-rao-starrer-showing-a-mirror-to-indias-sense-of-servitude-358789">The White Tiger </a>was in the vein of the sharp fables by iconic author Charles Dickens, unfolding like gangster epics, such as 1939 crime thriller The Roaring Twenties or 1931’s The Public Enemy.</p>

<p>“White Tiger (2021) Razorblade Dickensian fable by way of James M Cain or a WB gangster epic (The Roaring Twenties, The Public Enemy). Brutal, precise, and involving. Profound and merciless. The carnivorous class struggle. A rage that builds slowly into a shocking finale,” the 56-year-old Mexican filmmaker wrote on Twitter on Saturday.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/priyanka-chopra">Priyanka Chopra Jonas</a>, who played New York-raised Pinky madam in the film, quoted his tweet and wrote, “So grateful.” The White Tiger chronicled the extraordinary journey of a driver named, Balram, played by Gourav.</p>
